We have two classes: for preschoolers ages 1-2 and the other for Pre-Kindergarten ages 3-5. The parents/guardians will meet one night every four weeks to create the curriculum and assign roles for the following month.
A typical day with us:
9:15am- We set out toys for the children to play together for 30 minutes. During this time, those who are able to will get the first class set up for the day. For the preschoolers it is tactile/fine motor skills. For the pre-k students it is reading/writing.
9:45am- The preschoolers and the Pre-k students will go to their separate classrooms. During the next 15 minutes, the preschoolers will sing songs, learn each other's names in song, and either read a book of the letter of the week or learn about the letter of the week. Meanwhile, the Pre-K students will be learning songs about days of the week, months of the year, seasons, etc.
10am- Preschoolers will go to the table which has been set up already with their tactile/fine motor skills. The Pre-K children will concentrate on reading/writing in their own room. A parent will be setting up the next classes for their own classrooms near the end of the 15 minutes.
10:15am- Preschoolers will go to area in the room that is set up with role play and pretend play during this time. The Pre-K children will be working on their math skills. A parent will be setting up the next class which is Art.
10:30am- Both preschoolers and pre-k children will meet at the art table. During this time the adult on snack duty will be preparing them for snack time.
